Item - II
ORBIT INTERNATIONAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Nine month period ended September 30, 1998 v. September 30, 1997
The Company currently operates in two industry segments. Its Orbit
Instrument Division is engaged in the design and manufacture of
electronic components and subsystems (the "Electronics Segment"). Its
Behlman subsidiary is engaged in the design and manufacture of commercial
power units (the "Power Unit Segment").
Consolidated net sales for the nine month period ended September 30,
1998 decreased to $12,346,000 from $13,047,000 for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997 principally due to decreased sales from the
Company's Power Unit Segment which were partially offset by increased
sales from the Company's Electronics Segment.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997 was 41.5%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 slightly increased to $4,004,000 from $3,915,000
for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 due principally to
higher selling, general and administrative costs incurred by the
Electronics Segment resulting from increased selling and marketing
efforts. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage
of sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998 slightly
increased to 32.4% from 30.0% for the nine month period ended June 30,
1997, due to certain fixed costs of the Power Unit Segment which did not
decrease despite the reduction in the Segment's sales during the period.
In July, 1998, the Company reached a settlement with respect to the
USA Classic class action securities litigation pursuant to an executed
"Stipulation of Settlement" by each of the parties and the approval of
such by the court. The Company's portion of the settlement was
$1,000,000 of which $500,000 had been previously accrued. Accordingly,
the Company recorded an additional charge of $500,000 during the second
quarter of 1998.
Interest expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998
increased to $251,000 from $151,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997 due to interest recorded in the current period by the
Company related to a certain debt obligation of the discontinued apparel
operations.
Investment and other income for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1998 increased to $300,000 from $211,000 for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 due principally to an increase in
funds available for investment during the current period.
In connection with the resolution of the USA Classic class action
securities litigation and its related uncertainties and the consistent
earnings from its continuing operations, pursuant to Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes",
the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $1,200,000 during the nine
months ended Septmeber 30, 1998.
Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 1998
increased to $1,874,000 from $1,566,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1997 due principally to the recognition of a deferred tax
asset recorded during the second quarter of 1998 partially offset by the
additional charge of $500,000 recorded in connection with the settlement
of the class action securities litigation and partially offset by
decreased sales. Excluding the impact of the incom tax benefit and the
settlement of the class action litigation, net income for the nine month
period ended September 30, 1998 decreased to $1,174,000 from $1,566,000
for the same period last year.
Three month period ended September 30, 1998 v. September 30, 1997
Consolidated net sales for the three month period ended September
30, 1998 decreased to $3,826,000 from $4,651,000 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1997 due principally to decreased sales from
both the Company's Electronics and Power Unit Segments.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 decreased to 38.9% from 41.4% for the three month
period ended September 30, 1998 due to a lower gross profit recorded from
the Power Unit Segment due to product mix which was partially offset by
a larger gross profit recorded by the Electronics Segment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month
period ended September 30, 1998 slightly increased to $1,280,000 from
$1,251,000 principally due slightly higher selling, general and
administrative costs from both the Electronics and Power Unit Segments
which were partially offset by lower corporate costs. Selling general
and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, for the three
months ended September 30, 1998, increased to 33.5% from 26.9% for the
comparable period due to certain fixed costs which did not decrease in
proportion to the decrease in the Company's sales for the period.
Interest expense for the three month period ended September 30, 1998
decreased to $67,000 from $74,000 for the three month period ended June
30, 1997 due a reduction in the average amounts owed during the period
and a lower interest rate paid on such amounts owed as a result of the
new Mortgage and Term Loan facility closed during the period with a new
lender.
Investment and other income for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998 increased to $100,000 from $71,000 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1997 due to an increase in funds available for
investment during the current period.
Due to consistent earnings from its continuing operations, pursuant
to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", the Company increased its deferred tax asset by $50,000
during the three month period ended September 30, 1998.
Net income for the three month period ended September 30, 1998
decreased to $293,000 from $672,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 1997 principally due to a reduction in sales from both of
the Company's operating segments and a decrease in the gross margin
recorded by the Power Unit Segment.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Inflation:
Working capital increased to $8,646,000 at September 30, 1998
compared to $7,403,000 at December 31, 1997. The ratio of current assets
to current liabilities slightly increased to 2.4 to 1 at September 30,
1998 from 2.2 to 1 at December 31, 1997.
Net cash flows provided by operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 was approximately $2,100,000 primarily attributable to
the net income for the period, a decrease in accounts receivable and an
increase in customer advances which was partially offset by the recording
of a deferred tax asset and an increase in inventory. Cash flows used in
investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 totaled
approximately $865,000 primarily attributable to the net purchases of
marketable securities. Cash flows used in financing activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 totaled approximately $1,072,000
primarily attributable to repayments of long-term debt plus the payoff of
the Company's asset based lending arrangement partially offset by the
proceeds of a new Mortgage and Term Loan facility and a decrease in the
amounts due to factor.
All operations of the discontinued apparel companies have been
terminated. All losses and obligations of these apparel operations have
been provided for, and accordingly, the Company does not anticipate using
any significant portion of its resources towards these discontinued
apparel operations.
In August 1998, the Company closed on a new $4,000,000 Mortgage and
Term Loan facility with a new lender secured by real property and other
assets of the Company. The Company used $3,500,000 of the proceeds to
replace its existing asset based lending arrangement and the remaining
$500,000 will be used to partially fund the class action securities
litigation settlement of $1,000,000. Such settlement is expected to be
paid in January 1999.
Under the Company's factoring arrangement for its discontinued
Canadian apparel operations, the Company has provided a standby letter of
credit as security for its guaranty under this lending facility,
collaterallized by marketable securities. As of September 30, 1998, the
Company had provided approximately $23,000 in a standby letter of credit.
Such letter of credit expires in February 1999.
In September 1998, the Company approved a stock repurchase program
for the repurchase of up to 250,000 shares of its common stock in the
open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Through October
31, 1998 the Company repurchased approximately 36,000 shares at an
average price of $ 1.90 per share.
The Company's existing capital resources, including its bank credit
facilities, and its cash flow from operations are expected to be adequate
to cover the Company's cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of the
Company.
Certain Material Trends
Despite continued profitability in 1997 and through the first
three quarters of 1998, the Company continues to face a difficult
business environment with continuing pressure on the Company's prices for
its sole source sales and a general reduction in the level of funding for
the defense sector.
The Company continues to seek new contracts which require incurring
up-front design, engineering, prototype and preproduction costs. While
the Company attempts to negotiate contract awards for reimbursement of
product development, there is no assurance that sufficient monies will be
set aside by its customers, including the
U. S. Government, for such effort. In addition, even if the U. S.
Government agrees to reimburse development costs, there is still a
significant risk of cost overrun which may not be reimbursable.
Furthermore, once the Company has completed the design and preproduction
stage, there is no assurance that funding will be provided for future
production.
The Company is heavily dependent upon military spending as a source
of revenues and income. World events have led the U. S. Government to
reevaluate the level of military spending necessary for national
security. Any significant reductions in the level of military spending
by the U. S. Government could have a negative impact on the Company's
future revenues and earnings. In addition, due to major consolidations
in the defense industry, it has become more difficult to avoid dependence
on certain customers for revenue and income. Behlman's line of
commercial products gives the Company some diversity and the Instrument
Division is beginning to introduce certain of its products into
commercial and foreign markets.
In December 1997, the Company retained OEM Capital Corp ("OEM"), an
investment banking firm specializing in the electronics, communications
and computer industries, to assist the Company in identifying viable
acquisition opportunities. Although the Company is committed to
enhancing its sales and profitability through strategic acquisitions as
well as through internal growth, there is no guarantee that OEM will
present acquisition candidates that will ultimately result in a
transaction for the Company.
Year 2000
The Company has developed a plan to modify its information
technology systems to recognize the Year 2000, including the purchase of
a new manufacturing software package, and has begun converting its
critical data processing systems. The Company expects the project to be
completed by the second quarter of 1999 and to cost between approximately
$100,000 and $150,000. This estimate includes the price of new software
and internal costs but excludes the costs to upgrade and replace systems
in the normal course of business as well as potential costs for outside
consultants to assist the Company in the implementation of a new software
package. The Company does not expect this project to have a material
effect on its operations in 1998 and did not expend any significant
amount of money on this project for the nine months ended September 30,
1998. The Company has also initiated discussions with its significant
suppliers, large customers and financial institutions to ensure that
these parties have appropriate plans to remediate Year 2000 issues where
their systems interface with Company systems or otherwise impact its
operations. However, the Company is currently uncertain as to the impact
on its operations, liquidity and financial condition should these
organizations fail to properly remediate their computer systems.
While the Company intends to use diligent efforts and care to
implement the plan set forth above and to take any other necessary steps
with regard to its information technology systems to prepare for the Year
2000, there is no assurance that such steps will effectively accomplish
such goal. Furthermore, any failure on the part of the Company's primary
suppliers, service providers and customers to adapt their respective
information technology systems to recognize the Year 2000 could adversely
impact the Company. Furthermore, the U.S. Government has been a
significant customer of the Company for many years. There has recently
been much publicity concerning whether certain departments of the U.S.
Government will be Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. To the extent
problems are identified, the Company will implement corrective procedures
where necessary or an adverse effect on the Company's cash flow and
financial condition could result.
The Company has contingency plans for certain critical applications and
is working on plans for others. These contingency plans involve, among
other actions, manual workarounds, increasing inventories, and protective
cash management procedures.
